Commentary:
Trikatu
literally means "three pungents," as it
contains the herbs ginger, black pepper and
pippali. The powerful heating quality of this
combination is traditionally used to enkindle the
digestive fire and to effectively burn kapha, fat
and toxins. Trikatu supports healthy metabolism,
allowing nutrients to be properly digested and
assimilated, thus aiding in weight management.
Notes:

colds and cough, consider Immune Support
For asthma or low lung energy, consider Lung

For overweight or obesity, also consider Trim
Support
For pitta-related digestive complaints, consider Digest
Ease
